Growing up on a ranch in Southern New Mexico, Kim Wiggins began his art career sculpting
miniatures of the wildlife around him. Influenced by his father, a nationally recognized
photojournalist, and mother, a pioneer rodeo cowgirl, he was encouraged at an early age to
pursue the arts. By the time Wiggins was fourteen he began painting in oil and was working
nights and weekends as a graphic artist for a national equine magazine. Wiggins' paintings
have evolved with a unique, dramatic style. He populates his dynamic, bold canvases with
ribbons of color, bulbous clouds, expressionistic mountains, sinewy trees and distorted
houses. Among the youngest artists listed in Who's Who in American Art, Wiggins has been
featured in several magazines including a cover story in Wildlife Art magazine. Wiggins has
exhibited his work throughout the country and paintings are in the permanent collections of
the several museums including The Autry Museum of Western Heritage.
